Answer:

15.4 g of Zn₃(PO₄)₂ are produced

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of zinc phosphate formed = ?

Volume of zinc nitrate = 48.1 mL (0.05 L)

Molarity of zinc nitrate = 2.18 M

Solution:

Chemical equation:

3Zn(NO₃)₂ + 2K₃PO₄ → Zn₃(PO₄)₂ + 6KNO₃

Moles of zinc nitrate:

Molarity = number of moles / volume in litter

Number of moles = 2.18 M × 0.05 L

Number of moles = 0.109 mol

Now we will compare the moles of zinc phosphate with zinc nitrate from balanced chemical equation:

Zn(NO₃)₂ : Zn₃(PO₄)₂

3 : 1

0.109 : 1/3×0.109 = 0.04 mol

0.04 moles of Zn₃(PO₄)₂ are produced.

Mass of Zn₃(PO₄)₂:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.04 mol × 386.1 g/mol

Mass = 15.4 g

An aircraft cannot reach flying speed on a short runway. Someone suggests reducing its cargo load. Which of Newton's laws is bei

ELEN [110]

Answer:

Second Law

Explanation:

Newton's second law states that the acceleration caused in a body is directly proportional to the force applied and inversely proportion to the mass of the body.

This is given by :

$Acceleration=\frac{Force}{Mass}$

In this case the suggestion given to reduce the aircraft's cargo load is the right move as reducing the load on the aircraft will decrease the mass of the whole aircraft. This in turn will help the aircraft to accelerate more as acceleration inversely varies with mass. Thus the aircraft will be able to reach its flying speed even on a short run way.

Hence, Newton's second law is applied.
